Bye-Bye Baby Blue Eyes

Until very recently (i.e., after Christmas), Carson’s eyes looked like this…

Sky blue…like my eyes…like my dad’s eyes…like my Papa’s eyes.

Now they have changed to hazel, I guess. Lots of brown now.

I am surprised they waited until he was over a year old to change. Carson is beautiful regardless of something as silly as eye color, but I am just a tiny bit sad they didn’t stay the way they were.

My eyes — and specifically the color of them — have always been the main thing I get compliments on. That color of blue is a gene that has been passed down and I kinda liked the idea that the one physical attribute that I have going for me got passed down to my son.

Oh well. They are what they are meant to be, but I thought I would post about it because everyone who sees Mr. Carson in person in a regular basis (family/friends) have all noticed the big eye color change.

(Yes, we are still in Houston. We are heading back tomorrow, and I am playing on my mom’s computer.)
